Article Preview

The strategy of management of the existing capacity by proper illumination design and
the use of energy saving devices in the residential sector is reported. Improper installation design
and the use of all sorts of devices at homes has led to a lot of electrical energy wastages resulting in
the need to increase the generation capacity. The study revealed that annual energy of 551.88kWh
could be saved for a three – bedroom flat when energy saving fluorescent lamps were used. The
corresponding naira savings was 2,207.52 per annum. In addition, the sizes of cable, fuses/circuit
breakers required are reduced and hence reduction in the cost of installation. The paper advocates
the need for proper design and installation of energy saving devices in homes. The paper will be of
relevance to lighting installation designers, power systems engineers, power utility managers, and
the general public.

Abstract: Using an appropriate evaluation index for energy consumption is advantageous for evaluating energy saving effect of buildings correctly and carrying out energy-saving action reasonably. As a result, it is important to establish a practical quota of energy consumption for promoting energy-saving emission reduction. Energy consumption for residential buildings has been influenced by the behavior of residents in the building largely, and has a higher uncertainty, so it brings great difficulty to researches. Considering the characteristics of residential buildings, this paper uses comprehensive energy consumption per unit as evaluation index. Based on the investigation results and related studies, the residential buildings in Changsha are analyzed with statistical methods, in order to know more about the energy consumption level and structure for the residential buildings in Changsha. This paper shows the characteristics of the energy consumption of the residential buildings in Changsha, and work out the range of the comprehensive energy consumption per unit. The result provides a reference to make out energy policy and enhance the management of energysaving. It can be also used to guide the residents have a reasonable electric power utilization.

Abstract: Saving energy is one of the basic national policies, and energy efficiency in building is the important part of energy conservation work. It is of great significance to develop this work permanently. Discusses the definition of energy efficiency in building, introduces the concept of the life cycle, and sets up the life cycle cost estimation model. Through the analysis of energy saving building, comes to an important conclusion. Although the initial investment of energy saving building increases, the whole life cycle cost is obviously lower than general building. With the increasing of the discount rate and the extension of life cycle, the effect is more outstanding.

Abstract: In order to improve the effective utilization of the cooling tower fan industrial circulating water system, and to achieve the purpose of energy saving, the paper developed a closed loop cooling tower fan is jointly controlled by the PLC and inverter energy-saving control system. With the theoretical energy-saving fan characteristics analysis, PLC is used as a controller. Combined with inverter technology, remote real-time communication is carried out via RS485 bus with the host computer, and centralized monitoring to operating status of many sets of fans is realized. Production Practice has proved that under the premise of ensuring the water temperature standards, the inverter deceleration of the cooling tower fan makes significant energy savings effect.

Abstract: Central air-conditioning systems consume a lot of energy. Determining how to economize energy and enhance efficiency becomes urgently. In this article, the energy-saving measures of the central air-conditioning system are proposed from some aspects which include reasonable design, the momentum energy consumption, the hidden energy consumption, the new energy-saving technologies, etc.

Abstract: The life of saving-energy’s product of building generally less far than 50 years compared with the 50 years’ life of urban construction. Because of the relationship of property’s right of residential building complex, legal environment now isn’t better. In future, high maintenance and update cost of all saving-energy product of building will be an important problem. We must change the concept of paying much attention in construction than management, have a LCCA analysis and evaluation of buildings in investment; perfect the relevant laws and regulations; clear the responsible, right, obligation of the property’s. To serve the investor and the owner by effective asset management system, realize the building’s sustainable developing.
